    Twins Twins sign Punto

    Details not disclosed, but it's a two-year deal.


    This is good for the club. They really wanted him to come back and I'm glad that they could get this done.

    I think they are better off with him. Not much was out there on the market and the Twins know what they are getting.

    Exactly. He had an abysmal year in '07, but he turned it around in '08. He's a fan favorite in Minny too. Good move by the club.

    Good deal for both sides. I'm sure the team is happy to have him back
